THE DAILY LEVEL - The daily GoHighLevel brief for agencies

Hello there. HighLevel shipped an AI invoice layout builder and AskAI WhatsApp campaign prompts, a ClickFunnels refugee is watching conversions crater after the move, and clinics are asking whether GHL can finally replace Zenoti. Tuesday tooling for people who bill, book, and follow up in the same login.

In today’s newsletter, we’ll get into:

  • Layout AI Builder lets you prompt custom invoice designs, plus AskAI WhatsApp campaigns and workflow Find and Replace.
  • A funnel that converted at 18% in ClickFunnels fell to 5% on the same page in HighLevel, and aesthetics clinics debate ditching Zenoti.
  • Open threads on Community app message sync and UK voicemail routing, plus Central Florida Expo today and Endless Customers Live next week.
 
 

NEW FEATURES

 
 

🧾 Prompt an invoice layout - Layout AI Builder is live. Under Payments > Invoices and Estimates > Layouts, Layout AI Builder turns a plain-English prompt into a full invoice design - logo placement, itemized table, payment terms, bank details - then lets you nudge elements in a visual editor with restore points on every AI pass. Clone layouts per client, preview before publish, and lock the design once an invoice is sent or partially paid. If your clients still get the one boring default PDF, this is the fix.

💬 AskAI can now drive WhatsApp campaign prompts. HighLevel's Content Army walkthrough shows how to run WhatsApp marketing campaigns through AskAI - prompt Meta-compliant templates, target segments by contact tags, approve the automated actions, then pull performance stats without leaving the chat. Useful if your WhatsApp sends still start in a blank composer and you want the compliance wording handled before you hit send.

🔎 Find and Replace finally lands in the workflow builder. Tired of hunting one stale custom value across a 40-step automation? The new walkthrough shows Find and Replace inside workflows - search by custom value, tag, or plain text, jump to every matching action, and bulk-update strings without rebuilding the flow. Pair it with the help doc if you are mid-migration and every phone field still shows the old merge token.

 
 

MONEY & FOLLOW-UP

 
 

📉 Same page, new stack: conversions fell from 18% to 5%. A builder moved a funnel from ClickFunnels 2.0 into HighLevel, kept the page looking identical, and watched conversion rate crash from about 18% to 5%. Before you blame the platform, the thread is the place to compare load speed, form friction, tracking pixels, mobile render, and thank-you redirects. If you have already migrated a high-converting CF page, drop what you measured - agencies copying pages pixel-for-pixel need the real checklist.

💉 Can HighLevel replace Zenoti for an aesthetics clinic? A laser clinic is paying heavily for Zenoti plus Klaviyo and wonders whether HighLevel can run bookings, packages, memberships, consents, and multi-location alone - or whether Vagaro should keep the chair calendar while GHL owns leads and follow-up. Operators who actually run aesthetics on HighLevel: how do remaining-session packages and treatment forms hold up day to day? The thread wants lived experience, not another white-label sales page.

 
 

BUILD & AUTOMATE

 
 

⚙️ CeCe Tan: one workflow post became an investor pipeline. On Affiliate Insider, CeCe Tan (HL Accelerator / HighLevel Pilipinas) walks through how one automation-workflow share turned into a full investor and student pipeline - including the Facebook post that pulled hundreds, then thousands, in a week, and her tell-me-show-me-let-me teaching loop. Worth a watch if you teach HighLevel and your content still stops at screenshots instead of a repeatable workflow offer.

🧱 Adam McChesney rebuilt in public after a year locked out. HighLevel's feed highlights Adam McChesney, who spent most of 2024 blocked from selling digital marketing services by a legal fight, kept publishing anyway, then relaunched Builders of Authority after the case settled. The post is a reminder that personal-brand compounding beats going dark when the pipeline is legally frozen - useful context if a client account freeze has you wondering whether to stay visible.

 
 

OPEN QUESTIONS

 
 

📱 Custom Community app syncs app-to-app - not the web portal. A four-person team ships an App Store client for the HighLevel Community portal; web-to-web and app-to-app work, but messages sent from their app never appear on web. GoKollab fixes sync, yet leadership wants the old branded app updated instead. They are asking whether an existing Community app can be patched and what the leanest path is without rebuilding from scratch. If you have shipped a white-label Community client, the thread needs those gotchas.

📞 UK client: voicemails land on the GHL number - then what? Calls route from a business mobile into a HighLevel number so the AI chatbot can fire, but voicemails stuck on that GHL line are invisible unless someone logs into the sub-account. The agency wants SMS alerts with a way to listen - not email dumps and not a portal login for the owner. If you have a clean LC Phone / workflow pattern for UK voicemail notify-and-play, drop it before they duct-tape another number.
